Monthly Wrap-up: September 2015

Month in Review is a monthly meme which was created by
Kathryn at Book Date

Well my least favourite season has come and gone. Goodbye
hot, sticky, not-able-to-breathe summer and hello to beautiful, crisp autumn! I
just love smell of the smoky air, the sound of leaves crunching underfoot and
of course the vibrant changing of colours. I could do without the pumpkin spice
everything though.

Why is it that every time I sit down to type up my monthly
wrap up I totally blank on what I did for the past 4 weeks? Does this happen to
anyone else?

What did I do? Ah! I went camping with some friends at the
beginning of the month. I must say I prefer camping near the end of summer when the
nights aren’t as hot for sleeping in a tent. It did rain a little bit, but we
made the most of it anyway. We also did a little bit of sightseeing in the area
nearby. Check out this yummy breakfast we made over the fire..

Hopefully we will visit this campground again next summer.

This past month I joined up with #FitReaders, and failed
miserably thanks to a cold that just lingered for a few weeks. I must get on
track.. I MUST!

Here on the blog I made some adjustments and additions to my
new layout. I added my rating scheme to the sidebar and a page for my contact
information.

Now on to the books. I had a great month in reading,
completing 6 books. I'd say that the quality of the books I read in September is on par with the quantity.

The Stats:

Favourite Book of the Month: Pollyanna by Eleanor H.

October TBR:

Thank you for checking out my September wrap-up. How did you
do this past month? Did you read anything exciting? Could your monthly reading
experience be considered more quality based or quantity based? Please leave me
a message in the comments, I would love to hear from you.

Thank you for stopping by Laurel-Rain. I'm coming off of a Stephanie Plum break so I hope that I enjoy Sizzling Sixteen more than I the previous two installments. All the best in October to you as well.
